Awakening

The Kiss (Painting by Margaret Walsh Photo by owner BP)

Last night I dreamed of love gone by

and there were MACK trucks

and babies

and grey clouded skies

and as I watched lucidly

a closer face came through to me

and I knew

this was a true

transformation to my core

I looked within so many years

and now that I have long explored

it’s time to release

with much delight

and be present now

to feel the new

the birth of springtime coming through.

All the cold and wet of winter

splinter wood to build a fire

burn the dross

and feel renewed

watch the bulbs growing through

the dark rich earthy ground

will bring new blossoms all around.

So I awoke feeling heartened

having healed the love of many seasons

as Love is the important reason

to live, breathe and smile

share new days in happy ways

and see the breeze clear the haze.
